Gauntlight Beam (Light, Necromancy ) Trigger A living creature ends its turn in Haunted Room at night; Effect A ghastly image of the caster, seemingly composed of fresh blood, rises from the bloodstain on the floor and rotates in place like a lighthouse. Beams of cold blue light shine from the apparition’s eyes and open mouth, causing blisters and decay to spread across flesh. Living creatures within a 30-foot burst from the haunt's focus must attempt a DC 20 Fortitude save. The haunt then rolls initiative.
